NOTE is used to highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability or operation. 3

4 STARTING YOUR FURNACE Your furnace uses an automatic, hot surface ignition system to light the burners each time the thermostat signals the furnace to start. CLOSE Follow these important safeguards: S Never attempt to manually light the burners with a match or other source of flame. Fig. 5 - Close Valve 3. Turn OFF electrical supply to the furnace. A06188 S S Fig. 3 - Do Not Light Burner with Match A92319 Read and follow the operating instructions on inside of main furnace door, especially the item that reads as follows: Wait 5 minutes to clear out any gas. Then smell for gas, including near the floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow B in the safety information above on this furnace label. If you don t smell gas, go to the next step. If a suspected malfunction occurs with your gas control system, such as the burners do not light when they should, refer to the shutdown procedures on inside of main furnace door, or in the Shutting Down Your Furnace section and call your dealer as soon as possible. A92185 Fig. 6 - Turn Off Electrical Supply 4. Remove the outer door by loosening the thumbscrew and pulling the door forward. 1 2 FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death or property damage. Should the gas supply fail to shut off or if overheating occurs, turn off the manual gas valve to the furnace BEFORE turning off the electrical supply and install lockout tag. S CHECK AIR FILTER: Before attempting to start your furnace, be sure the furnace filter is clean and in place. See Performing Routine Maintenance section in this manual. Do not run the furnace without a filter in place. Then proceed as follows: STEPS FOR STARTING YOUR FURNACE 1. Set your room thermostat to the lowest temperature setting. 3 A02073 Fig. 7 - Remove Furnace Door 5. Turn the control switch on the gas control to the OFF position and wait 5 minutes. Then smell for gas, including near the floor. If you smell gas, STOP! Follow B on furnace label. If you don t smell gas, go to next step. ON OFF OR Fig. 4 - Lowest Temperature Setting 2. Close the external manual gas valve. A08121 A02266 Fig. 8 - Control Switch to OFF 6. After waiting 5 minutes, if you still smell gas, STOP! Follow the safety information on the cover of this manual.

5 OR ON OFF Fig. 9 - Control Switch to ON 8. Replace the outer door and tighten the thumbscrew Fig Furnace Door Replaced 9. Turn ON the electrical supply to the furnace. A02267 A Afterabout17 seconds,the gasvalve permitsgas to flow to the main burners where it is ignited. Hot flames begin to warm the furnace s heat exchanger. After a time delay of approximately seconds the furnace blower is switched on. NOTE: If the main burners fail to ignite, the furnace control system will go through three more ignition cycles. Then if burners fail to ignite, the system will lockout. If lockout occurs or the blower does not come on, shut down your furnace and call your dealer for service. 13. Set your thermostat to the temperature that satisfies your comfort requirements. SUGGESTION: Setting the thermostat back a few degrees and compensating for the difference with warmer clothing can make a big difference in your fuel consumption on extremely cold days. The few degrees at the top of your thermostat comfort level are the most costly degrees to obtain. When the room temperature drops below the temperature selected on the thermostat, the furnace will switch on automatically. When the room temperature reaches the setting selected on the thermostat, the furnace will be automatically switched off. Continuous Fan Operation -Some thermostats have a FAN switch with 2 selections: AUTO and ON. When thermostat is set on AUTO, the furnace blower cycles on and off, controlled by the thermostat. In ON position, the furnace blower runs continuously except for a sec delay at the call for heat. Continuous fan keeps the temperature level in your home more evenly balanced. It also continuously filters the indoor air. FanOnt - On all but the 310AAV or 310JAV, the continuous fan blower speed can be increased or decreased if desired due to change of seasons, large gatherings in your home, etc. Simply change your FAN switch from on to off (or auto depending on your thermostat), and then return to on, within 1 to 3 seconds. The blower will switch to the next highest speed. There are at least 3 speeds to choose from. If the blower is running on its highest speed, a request to change will direct the blower to return to its lowest speed. Fig Turn On Electrical Supply 10. Open the external manual gas valve. A92359 SHUTTING DOWN YOUR FURNACE Should you ever suspect a malfunction in your furnace, you will need to turn the furnace off. The following procedures must be followed: 1.

8 COMBUSTION AREA AND VENT SYSTEM ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death. For proper and safe operation the furnace needs air for combustion and ventilation. Do not block or obstruct air openings on the furnace, air opening to the area in which the furnace is installed, and the space around the furnace. ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death. If holes are found or if the vent pipe is obstructed or is not connected, toxic fumes can escape into your home. DO NOT OPERATE YOUR FURNACE. Call your dealer for service. Fig Burner Flame CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death. If dirt, rust, soot, or scale accumulations are found, call your dealer. Do not operate your furnace. A92330 Inspect the combustion area and vent system before each heating season. An accumulation of dirt, soot, or rust can mean a loss of efficiency and improper performance. Buildups on the main burners can cause faulty firing. This delayed ignition is characterized by an alarmingly loud sound. NOTE: If your furnace makes a loud noise when the main burners are ignited, shut down the furnace and call your servicing dealer. Use your flashlight and follow these steps for inspecting the combustion area and vent system of your furnace: 1. Turn off electrical supply to the furnace and remove the access door. (See Fig. 6 and 7.) 2. Carefully inspect the gas burner for dirt, rust, or scale. Inspect the elbow, flue connection area, and the vent pipe for rust. 3. Inspect the vent pipe for a sag, holes, or a disconnection. A horizontal vent pipe must slope upward away from furnace. If rusty joints or seams, or signs of water leakages are found, call your dealer for service. 4. Restore electrical power to the furnace. (See Fig. 11.) 5. Start the furnace and observe its operation. If possible, watch the burner flames. Are they burning bright blue? If not or if you suspect some other malfunction, call your servicing dealer. 6. Replace the access door. (See Fig. 10.) 8

9 BEFORE YOU REQUEST A SERVICE CALL Before you call for service, check for several easily solved problems: S Check for sufficient airflow. Check the air filter for dirt. Check for blocked return -air or supply -air grilles. Be sure they are open and unobstructed. If this isn t the cause of the problem, call your servicing dealer. If your furnace isn t operating at all, check the following list for easily solved problems: S Is your thermostat set above room temperature? Is the HEAT mode selected? S Is the electrical power supply switch on? Is the blower access door firmly in place? Are any fuses blown? (There is a fuse on the furnace control.) Has a circuit breaker tripped? S Is the manual shut-off valve in the gas supply pipe leading to the furnace open? Does the lever point in the same direction that the pipe runs (open)? Or is it at a right angle to the pipe (closed)? NOTE: Before proceeding with the next checks, turn off the electrical power supply to the furnace. Remove access door. S Is the switch on the gas valve turned to the ON position? If this or the preceding check shows an interruption in the gas supply, make sure the gas has not been shut off for safety reasons. If nothing else seems to be wrong, follow the start-up procedures found on pages 4 and 5 of this booklet.! CAUTION PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD Failure to follow this caution may result in personal injury. If for some reason the vent is blocked, the draft safeguard switch will shut off the furnace. (See Page 2 for switch location.) The switch will automatically reset after the furnace cools off. If the furnace fails to operate, contact a qualified service agency. S Check the manual reset limit switches located on the ends of the burner enclosure (see Fig. 1 and 2). If the furnace has experienced a high -temperature condition due to inadequate combustion air, these switches will shut off the furnace. Reset the switches by pushing the button on the switch. If the switch trips a second time, turn off the furnace and call for service. S If your furnace still fails to operate, call your servicing dealer for troubleshooting and repairs. Tell your dealer the model and serial numbers for your furnace. (You should have them recorded on page 10 of this booklet.) By knowing exactly which furnace you have, the dealer may be able to offer suggestions over the phone or save valuable time through knowledgeable preparation for the service call. Regular dealer maintenance In addition to the type of routine maintenance you might be willing to do, your furnace should be inspected regularly by a properly trained service technician. A semiannual inspection (or annual inspection, at least) should include the following: 1. Inspection of all flue gas passages including the burners, heat exchanger, inducer, elbow, and vent pipe. 2. Inspection of all combustion and ventilation air passages and openings. 3. Close check of all gas pipes leading to and inside of your furnace. 4. Inspection and cleaning of the blower motor and wheel. 5. Routine inspection and cleaning/replacement of the air filter. 6. Inspection of all supply - and return -air ducts for obstructions, air leaks, and insulation. Any problems found should be resolved at this time. 7. Inspection of furnace installation for proper support and any obvious deterioration of the furnace. The support must be sound and without sags, gaps, cracks, etc., around the furnace base so as to provide an air seal between the return -air duct and furnace. 8. A check for loose connections attaching individual components. Inspection of all electrical wiring and their connections. 9. Operational check of the furnace itself to determine working condition. Repair or adjustment should be made at this time. Ask your servicing dealer for further details about an economical service contract that covers seasonal inspections. 9
